Went to a camping in the Laurentians in Québec (Ste-Agathe) and there were those things near some camp sites. The sites are only accessible by footpaths. No car access. And if you bring a bike, you have to walk it up a hill, so I doubt they are bike racks.

Second on firewood storage.

The sides keep it all in one place, while the top lets you throw a tarp over it to keep wood dry in the rain.

It's definitely not a bike rack, the cross bars would stop it working.

It's definitely not a grill. The concrete would be discoloured, and the base is all wrong.

I’ve been putting my tarp over wood directly—didn’t realize I was doing it wrong :)
